Chapter 18: Identity Awakening

Since the Interior Hall of Cold Ice City was only separated from the barracks by two roads, Lei Zhen didn't take a few minutes to get there. However, in just a few minutes, the name of Lei Zhen should have resounded throughout the entire Cold Ice City.

After all, when most players can only recruit ordinary soldiers, one person can carry a full 25 elite soldiers to swagger through the market, like pouring a spoonful of boiling oil into the water, which suddenly makes the surroundings boil.

The Interior Hall of the Ice City is not particularly outstanding when viewed from the outside, but it is the tallest building in the entire Ice City. When the thunderstorm arrived, I couldn't help but be shocked by the towering building.

The entire interior hall presents a Gothic architectural style, tall and thin, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. The top is pointed like a tower, and three pointed arches about five to seven meters high are arranged parallel to the base of the Interior Hall. The middle is the highest, and the sides are low. Above the arches, reddish vertical glass windows cover two-thirds of the entire faΓ§ade and reach the top of the tower. Viewed from a distance, it looks like a red vertical eye, revealing endless majesty.

Lei Zhen's main purpose in going to the Interior Department of Cold Ice City is naturally to find the city lord of Cold Ice City, extract character specialties and choose professions. However, he also got a quest item before, and he also needed to hand it over to the city lord of Ice City, the necromancer Sals, and Lei Zhen planned to do it together.

The city lord Sals was not difficult to find, so he sat on the city lord's seat at the end of the hall on the first floor of the Interior Hall. I saw that he was wearing a black robe, the neckline and cuffs were golden, and the chest of the robe was embroidered with a rising flame, which looked very majestic. However, when he got closer, he found that his face was very pale, his eye sockets were deep, and he had a golden headband on his forehead, which tied his dry hair behind him. Lei Zhen knew that this should be caused by prolonged exposure to undead magic.

Since Legend of Heroes was introduced in the early promotion, the NPCs in the game are not just a bunch of data, but a group of flesh-and-blood people, and it is recommended that players treat the game as a parallel space and treat NPCs as the same kind. Therefore, Lei Zhen did not dare to make a mistake at this time, leaned forward slightly, clasped his hands into fists and asked the person on the seat, "May I ask but the city lord?" In the next thunderstorm, something to report to the adults. ”

"You're Lei Zhen? I've heard of you, nice lad! I happen to have two orders here, both for you. "City Lord Sals's voice was very hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time, and his vocal cords were about to rust, which made Lei Zhen feel very uncomfortable. However, it was in his own interests, and Lei Zhen didn't care about these details, and hurriedly made a listening expression.

"The first one is that you completed a bounty for the Empire, and I will reward you with 500 gold from the finances of Ice City on behalf of the Empire!" Seemingly satisfied with Lei Zhen's attitude, Sals directly handed a small bag of gold coins to Lei Zhen.

"The second is that you have completed an important confidential mission for the Empire, and the Empire has ordered me to do my best to help you improve the level of the trait when you awaken the character traits." Sals touched his hair and glanced at Lei Zhen: "Although I don't understand, how can you, a little guy who hasn't even fully reached the first order, help the empire complete this secret mission, but I will still obey the arrangement of the empire and try my best to help you awaken a better characteristic." ”

Lei Zhen knew that this should be the system reward brought by being the first to be promoted to level 10 on his whole server, so he took the opportunity to ask, "Lord City, how should the character characteristics be awakened?" What do I need to do? ”

"Hehe, what an anxious little guy! Come with me, let's talk as we go. The city lord Sals smiled slightly, got up and walked to the side of the stairs.

Lei Zhen immediately followed, and then heard Sals say: "Everyone has characteristics, some are innate, and some are acquired. Some people are good at commanding armies, and some people are good at magic cultivation. However, most of the properties are hidden inside one's body and cannot be perceived by the outside world. The characteristic awakening is to liberate these hidden forces in the body, so that people can gradually control this power. ”

"In that case, isn't the type and strength of each person's traits predetermined in advance?" Lei Zhen asked.

"Of course not! In the Continent of the Gods in ancient times, people found a way to awaken the characteristics from the gods, and in the process of continuous awakening, people found that the use of different awakening methods can greatly affect the type of characteristic awakening. The use of different Awakening items will affect the final strength of the Awakening trait. ”

Sals carefully explained to Lei Zhen. "According to the rules that people have figured out, when the level rises to level 10, it is the best time for the trait to awaken, and too early or too late will greatly reduce the success rate of the trait awakening."

"Is there a possibility that the Identity Awakening will fail?" Lei Zhen couldn't help but interrupt again.

"Yes, the Trait Awakening is not 100% successful, and the success rate is about 80%. However, you can rest assured, according to the Empire's arrangement, I will directly let you use the highest level of Awakening Stones, so that the success rate of your awakened traits will not only reach 100%, but also the strength of your traits will be at least one order higher than that of ordinary Awakening Stones. ”

Sals stopped and turned around and said to Lei Zhen seriously. "Okay, there's the awakening room in front, and the trait types are divided into 4 categories: magic, war, logistics, and comprehensive, now choose your awakening type."

Looking at the four parallel rooms in front of him, Lei Zhen fell into a tangle. He definitely won't choose the logistics class, the war class should mainly correspond to the soldiers, and Lei Zhen is not good at it. What he was struggling with now was whether to choose a magic class or a comprehensive class.

Glancing up at the Ice City Lord beside him, Lei Zhen suddenly remembered that he still had a mission item that he hadn't given him. So he took out Skeletron's ruby necklace and asked, "Lord Castle, is this necklace yours?" ”

Sals, with his skills that did not match his body, snatched the necklace into his hand in an instant, and a flash of excitement flashed on his pale face. Staring into Lei Zhen's eyes, he asked, "Where did you get this necklace?" ”

Lei Zhen was a little furious by him, "This was dropped by me after I defeated a mutated skeleton queen." ”

"Hey! Teacher, this is all providence! ”

Sals closed his eyes and sighed, pointed to Lei Zhen and said, "Boy, the fourth room." Whether it succeeds or not, it's up to your luck! I'll tell you more about it. ”

Then he threw the necklace back to Lei Zhen, turned around and left. But after a few steps, a sentence came: "Remember, put your hand on the Awakening Stone with the necklace." ”
